To. alt. whom it may concern;

Be it known that I, ALBERT D. BAOH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hornitos, in the county of Mariposa, State of California, have invented certain new and useful; Improvements in Vise Attach ments; and I do declare the following to be 'tive for the a clear, full, and exact description of. the same, such as will enable others skilled 1n the art to which it appertains, to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the characters of reference marked thereon, which form a p rt of this applicati n Fhis invention relates to improvements in vises and particularly to an attachment for vises adapted to hold odd and irregular shaped article's securely in the vise in order pler structure for the adjustable jaw and also shows and embodies a plurality of depre ion and s s n the jaws. ap bl of receivlng various lrregular art cles in order to hold them more securely.

The a ov o jec s, I ac omp i h by means of s h ru r an rela ive a ang men f h pa s as will ful y appear y a pomeal of the following specification and.

claims. On the drawings similar characters of reference indicate corresponding Parts in the several views.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of a vise show? ing my improved structure mounted there? nig. 2 i atop plan View of a alf of one of my improved jaw. members. Fig. 3

is a top plan view of a half of another form of jaw member. Figs.4. and.5/aresectional.

views of still two other difierent forms of jaw members, while Figs. 6, 7, and 8 are front elevations of jaw members showing the various different shaped recesses and depressions stamped there n.

Referring :nowimore particularly to the characters of reference on the drawings, the' numeral 1 designates the rise standard,

while 2 designats the fiiied jaw and3 the movable jaw th reonjeoting shank 51.

applying my improved invention, I

having the usual proumrnn TAT S-PAfiE O I provide a forked standard 5. or any desired shape of standard, adapted to straddle the correspondingly shaped shank 4; and having a threaded pin 6 screwed into a block memher 7 whereby said block 'member may be screwed up to be in exact alinement with the jaw 2. Said block is provided its rear end with a slot 8 in which are inserted clamp springs 9 similar in structure to the clamp spring structure shown in my above mentioned patent, hence no detailed. description of the same is given here, such spring lip b ing ap ed o ng h jaw 2 t i hold the block 7 in fixed position.

The block 7 is provided with a projecting shelf 10 at its lower end. Said block 7 is provided in its front face from the plane of the shelf 10 to its upper end with a vertical semi-circular groove 11 adapted to receive 8. pin 12 on an independent auxiliary jaw member 13 whi h slot and pin structure permits said jaw 13 to be swiveled in difierent direction when the diflerent irregular shaped articles are disposed between the Jfn e f aid j w 13 a d t jaw th nd'ja cent edges of said block 7 and said jaw 13 being cut obliquely away from each other for this purpose;

. The. adjacent surfaces of-ithe members 7 and 13 areprovided with; a plurality of various irregular shaped articles and hold the same between the members 7 and 13 o with the jaw m ber 1 ord r to hol e j 13 in o i i n in the slot 11, the pin 12 isprovi ed with a groove 15 adapted to receive a bolt'or screw 16 whi h hers 9 and the block 7 as shown in Fig. 4, which structure will revent th block 13 from becoming loosene from its position.

Fig- 3' hows m difi d m o block rojeo s throug hespr ng emwhen the jaw member 3 is broughtin con- I ion n law in i hth l k 7 and th auxih iar jaw 18 i p ided w -a plurality of di cl nt haped inci ns n th ir a j en faces for varlous purposes and in this modilied form the two adjacent jaws of the memwood workers where a greater bearing surface on the auxiliary aw is deslred.

I screw, or any article with ahead 1 out marring the head.

Figs. 6,7 and 8 show difierent forms of jaw members 23 and 24: and 25 respectively,

all showing a varied number of recesses and depressions cut in the faces of said auxiliary jaw members, whereby allowing any form of irregular object to be received between the jaw members and fit therein and be held snugly by the vise.

From the foregoing description it will be readily seen that I have produced such. a

device as can be readily used for any number of irregular objects, but whileI have: shown but a few examples of different forms of jaw members adapted to be used for this purpose, still in practiceI will use any form of jaw or any jaw member provided with any form of recess or depression found desirable for the purpose .Alsovthe device is so constructed as to hold any bolt,

From the foregoing description it willbe readily seen that I havep'rodu'ced such a deviceas substantially fulfils the objects of the invention as set forth herein.

While this specification setsforth in detail the present and preferred construction of the device, still in practice such deviaon it withtions from such detail may be resorted to as do not form a departure from the spirit of the invention. 1

Having thus described my invention what I claimas new and useful and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

1. A device of the character described comprising the combination with a vise having a fixed and a movable jaw, of an attachment for said vise, such attachment comprising a forked standard, a threaded pin on said standard, a block mounted. on said threaded pin, a vertical slot in saidblock, clamp springs on said block, a pin projecting into said slot and provided with a transverse slot, a bolt projecting through said springs and into said. last named slot, and an auxiliary jawmember mounted on said last named pin, as described.

2. A device of the character described comprisingthe combination with a vise having a fixed and movable jaw, ofran attachment for such vise, such attachmentcomprising a fork standard, a threaded pin on said standard, a block mounted on said threaded pin, a vertical slot in saidblock,

a pin projecting into said slot and provided my signature Witnesses: v
